About GHRI Ratings

X

Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.

Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.

Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.

The Ecru Travel Hair Dryer was a favorite among our consumer testers

The Ecru Travel Hair Dryer was a favorite among our consumer testers  they found it comfortable to hold and easy to use, and thought it made their hair smooth and shiny  but this pricey model was one of the poorest performers in GHRI tests. It was among the slowest to dry hair in our lab evaluation and nearly the loudest unit to operate too (as measured in our sound room). The blow dryer boasts a sleek, cream-colored design, but more effective models can be had for less.
